I am very much interested in knowing more about the children of William Chase and his wives Abigail Hale and Elizabeth Holder. Do you have dates of birth for them? Mine are only speculative. What are your sources?

I would like to know what your sources are for the information you cite about Benjamin Chase and Helen Harvie. Also do you have more definitive dates for William's siblings, and what are the sources for them? As I stated yesterday, I get both lines of Chase, both William and Aquila. The information about Benjamin is new to me. I had decided that William was not a brother of Thomas and Aquila, but had no information about his father. also I would like to know more about the Elizabeth Holder and Abigail Hale problem as this is also in my ancestry. Do you have sources for the marriages of William to his wives? Leslie Quist > > > << Hi Melody, > > I differ with your #7.

I see what my problem is (one of them anyway) is that I have William Chase b. 1645 and married 1. Hannah Sherman and 2. Priscilla Perry under both wives of William Chase and Abigail Hale and Elizabeth Holder. Which one is correct? Thanks Ginny Core

I am checking my information on the Chase family members on my line. William Chase abt 1550 and Mary Hammond Benjamin abt 1570 and Helen Harvie William 1597 and Mary ?? William 1621 and Abigail Hale and 2 Elizabeth Holder Benjamin 1639 and Phillipa Sherman Phillipa Ruth 1679 and Jacob Hathaway and daughters out the rest of the way. Does anyone have part or all of this line? I would like to exchange information. Ginny Core

Dick I suggest to you that William was a coousin to Aquila & Thomas. I don't have access to my records at this computer so I'll have to send the lineage later.

Actually, there is no further record of that Aquila in Chesham, Buckinghamshire, other than that of his baptism on 7 Aug 1580. It is presumed by many respected researchers, however, that the Aquila who appears in the Thomas-the-Apostle Parish records in London with the marriage to Martha Jelliman (22 Jun 1606) is probably that Aquila. (If it isn't, we then haven't the foggiest idea what happened to him.) The London Aquila's burial is recorded in the St. Nicholas, Cole Abbey, records as occurring 9 Feb 1643/4. Martha was buried in the same parish 15 Aug 1643. Their children were: Anne, Martha, Sara, Elizabeth, Joane, and Aquila (baptisms all recorded in either St. Thomas-the-Apostle or St. Nicholas parishes). There is no record of a son William. These Parish records are judged by researchers to be complete. The son Aquila was baptized in 1626, and his burial is recorded there in 1659/60, so he is obviously not the Aquila who shows up in Hampton, Mass. Bay Colony (now New Hampshire) in 1638 with his brother Thomas. That Aquila is the one who died in 1670. It remains unknown what, if any, any relationship there is between the brothers Aquila and Thomas and William Chase. Dick Chase

Guess it's time for me to jump right in and ask questions. My descendent of Aquila, Moses Chase, b: 13 Feb 1744, Newbury MA. married Anne Sargent. Am making no progress in finding even a clue as to her parentage. Also would love to hear from any who are desc. of Christopher Columbus CHASE, grandson of above and my great grandfather. He married Susan SANBORN. Both believed to have been born in Bath, NH. Priscilla CHASE Marchbanks

I do wish that there were not quite so many incorrect genealogies of Aquila of Newbury MBC floating about the internet and elsewhere. For the record: Despite exhaustive searches by very reputable genealogists, NO records have been found that provide competent and verifiable information on the ancestry of Aquila and Thomas Chase who settled (from England) in Hampton, MBC in or about 1638. (Given this, it is a little difficult to establish any kinship between them and the William Chase who is the progenitor of yet another Chase line in this country.) The ONLY information that we have about this Aquila's birth is contained in a 25 Sep 1666 court deposition, in which it is stated that he was "aged about forty-eight years." This would make the year of his birth about 1618. There is no record of when Thomas was born. There is no record of their parents, or birthplace, only a reasonable assumption that it was in England. While it might be a reasonable inference to draw that they may well be related to the Chesham Chase line (given the not too common Aquila names), it can only be an inference, for there have been NO records found that substantiate this. The Aquila who was son of Richard (of Chesham) is clearly not the Aquila of Hampton & Newbury, MA. J. Montgomery Seaver makes this ludicrous linkage in his "Chase Family History", but he lacks credibility as a genealogist in more ways than just this. I suggest anyone interested in the Chesham Chase line (including the London Aquila who married Martha Jelliman and was the father of Aquila bpt 1626) look at the information on our CHASE web site. Some of the dates for the Chesham Chases got a bit fouled up somehow in the posting process, but the lineage is correct based on the best information available. Dick Chase

Hello, I made an inquiry several months ago but never got any reply, so I'll try once more before I give it up. My ggrandfather married a Margaret Chase, either in Minn or Indiana. His name was William Todd. They lived in Indiana where my Grandfather William Joseph Todd was born in 1874. This is the most information I have been able to gather in over a year. If anyone out there has this family in their line, I would greatly appreciate a few new clues to follow up. Thank you. Peggy Urriola

Hi All, This is my Chase family. I am having a problem proving that William W. Chase is the son of Abner and Caroline (Hager) Chases. I was wondering if anyone had any info on them that could help me? Researching in NYS... well it take more patience that I have. My family has told me that this is correct, but I have found too many times that their verbal history isn't always right. Appreciate any help.

Hello Luke, Thank you for writing. Wow, this is interesting. Have you found source documentation on your tree yet? I am new at this so I haven't yet. So I don't know what is correct. The info (or misinfo) I have on William and Aquila came from from Family Tree Maker or Ancestrycom. It is from work others have done on their family trees that seem to fit, but it may well be wrong. I don't really know where to begin to find source documentation to substantiate anything. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Yes, I would like to know more of the ancestry of Abigail and Hannah, thank you. I would be happy to receive any further info on this that you or anyone else here would care to share.

Josiah Chase was born September 15, 1741 in Newbury, Essex, Massachusetts, and died October 19, 1796 in Conway, New Hampshire. He married Mehitable Frye August 22, 1765 in Andover, Massachusetts, daughter of Joseph Frye and Mehitable Poor. Son of Thomas Chase and Emma Kent. Have prior generations to Aquila. Any descendants of Josiah out there? Will exchange info. John

I am still here and checking my email to see if I can help anyone with info. I have traced my lineage from me to Aquilla. Chase is my birthname and I am very proud of it. I ran into such trouble trying to send a gedcom that I gave up. My line is: Aquilla abt.1618-1670 John Chase 1655-1739 Jacob Chase 1690-5-1754 John Chase 1719 Jacob Chase 1743 Jacob Chase 1768-1861 Jacob Chase 1797-1865 Ransom Jay Chase 1840-1911 Lucius Kurtz Chase 1871-1949 David Parker Chase 1907-1992 I know wives names, children,places they lived, grave sites thanks to help on the internet and my great grandfather's careful research. But I have not seen any thing posted that connects farther down the line than John. so you are all very distant cousins. I am now interested in learning history of places for example researching New Hampshire history especially Londonderry. If I see any thing posted where I can help I will be glad to.

I'm still here too. Have 2 Chase lines. One from William thru his son William, his son John, his son William, his daughter Elizabeth, who married Barnabas Wixon II. The other line is from Aquila thru his son John , his son Jacob, his son Ebenezer, his son Jacob, his daughter Sarah (Sally) Chase, who married Edward Whaley.

Hi everyone, I too have wondered what happened to everyone. I am a member of several other groups and they in turn take up most of my email on any given day. I have had many conversations with Lisa C about our family line. And received great information from her to prove that my Chase line does come from Aquila. I am very grateful to her for all the information. What is happening with the Coat Of Arms? I haven't heard anything about that lately either. Sheila Stratton-Peel
